Today we are very happy to feature a huge interview with most of the developer team of Arch Linux, including its founder, Judd Vinet. If you are curious about this young and promising Linux distribution, dig in for more!

What FreeBSD comparisons? Who was painting it as being hardcore? Did I miss something?

All that was said was that users that like FreeBSD and Slack are likely to like Arch. So calm down on your rant. Arch may not be as easy as FreeBSD (I don't know I haven't tried FreeBSD), I personally think it isn't as easy as Slackware, but that doesn't stop them being similar.
